When you're a 72 year-old eight-time Grand Prix winner and six-time Le Mans winner, and you get a little bored, what do you do? You take your kids to the races!

Jacky Ickx and his five children will be teaming up this summer to race in the VW Fun Cup 25 Hours of Spa - yes, that's 25 hours.

The Fun Cup is a low-cost, one make series based on identical Volkswagen Beetle-inspired machines. The highlight of the Fun Cup season is the 25 Hours at Spa which enjoys every year an entry list of over 150 cars!
